Nicole Kidman's Paparazzi Scare

Nicole Kidman told a courtroom Monday how she was reduced to tears and feared a car accident after a celebrity photographer pursued her two years ago. Kidman, who divides her time between Los Angeles and her hometown of Sydney, Australia, was testifying in the photographer's defamation suit against a Sydney newspaper that slammed him for allegedly hounding the Oscar-winning actress.

Kidman described hunkering down in the car's back seat - leaning over in her chair in the witness stand to demonstrate - to try to avoid being spotted by photographer Jamie Fawcett. She said the trip quickly turned into a hair-raising chase as a vehicle carrying Fawcett and another vehicle, believed to contain his assistant, lurched through traffic around Kidman's car."I was frightened and I was worried there was going to be an accident," Kidman said. Kidman said she was "really, really scared" during the car ride and that she was "in tears and distressed" by the time she reached her parents' house. "I employ people to protect me now. I employ people 24 hours to protect myself because I don't feel equipped to handle things," she said.

I can't really comment much on this story except say if I saw someone as pasty as her driving down the road, I'd chase the ho for a pic too! That's like getting the Abominable Snowman on video!
